I have a form in which I call setInstances(x) to generate multiple instances of a subform.Only I want to gather some data from the user first and have that data replicated in the new instances. As it is, the new instances are based on the original empty version of the form.Is there a way to do this?...

Thanks Bruce.Yes, "on top of the other" referred to the hierarchy.Your point on sibling subforms was what I was missing.Scott.

I have two subforms, one on top of the other. The second one is marked Keep with Previous in the Pagination tab.Yet page breaks are allowed to occur between the two, leaving the one orphaned at the bottom of a page.Anyone know what I'm missing?Thanks.

It gets stranger.Form was built with LC ES 4. Reader extentions applied with Acrobat Pro 11.The workflow of prompting with an Open dialog with Reader 11 only works after disabling "Enhanced Security" in Acrobat Pro and clearing LC rights management cache.Is this stuff documented anywhere?Thanks.

What's the criteria that triggers a subtotal to be needed?

I would probably use numeric fields in a table rather stand alone fields.FormCalc is a little more effcient than javascript with this sort of thing. I've used this method:if (HasValue(ExpenseClaim.Page1.MiscExpenses.TableExpense.Row1.Cell6) $.rawValue = Sum(TableExpense.Row1[*].Cell6); else $.rawVal...

A seeming simple bit of code:xfa.host.importData();in the click event of a button is supposed to open a dialog prompting a user to choose a data file, but doesn't.Anyone know of what could suppress this? It doesn't work in LC ES 2 preview, or Acrobat X, or Reader 11.Thanks.

Bruce, your comment makes me wonder if there is a better way to collect data from these forms. At this point we're looking for .csv data. Any suggestions?Thanks.

Wow, that is a surprise.Guess I'll dig out my copy of 9.Thanks.

So as an experiment I added some check boxes. Data from text fields, drop downs and check boxes all land in Acrobat's report.csv file provided that binding is set. No radio button data is exported. What is it about radio buttons?I'm using LCD ES2 ver. 9 to create the form and Acrobat X to create rep...
